उत्पत्ति 12
1 परमप्रभुले अब्रामलाई भन्नुभयो, “तेरो देश, तेरा नातेदारहरू र तेरो पिताको घरानाबाट मैले तँलाई देखाउने मुलुकतिर जा ।
And YHWH says to Abram, “Go for yourself, from your land, and from your family, and from the house of your father, to the land which I show you.
2 म तँलाई ठुलो जाति बनाउनेछु, म तँलाई आशिष् दिनेछु, तेरो नाउँ महान् हुनेछ र तँ आशिष् हुनेछस् ।
And I make you become a great nation, and bless you, and make your name great; and be a blessing.
3 तँलाई आशिष् दिनेलाई म आशिष् दिनेछु, तर तँलाई अनादर गर्नेलाई म सराप दिनेछु । तँद्वारा नै पृथ्वीका सबै परिवारहरूले आशिष् पाउनेछन् ।
And I bless those blessing you, and I curse him who is cursing you, and all families of the ground have been blessed in you.”
4 यसैले परमप्रभुले भन्नुभएबमोजिम अब्राम गए र लोत पनि तिनीसँगै गए । हारान छोडेर जाँदा अब्राम पचहत्तर वर्षका थिए ।
And Abram goes on, as YHWH has spoken to him, and Lot goes with him, and Abram [is] a son of seventy-five years in his going out from Haran.
5 अब्रामले तिनकी पत्नी साराई, तिनका भतिजा लोत, तिनीहरूले हारानमा जम्मा गरेका सम्पत्ति र प्राप्त गरेका मानिसहरू सबै लगे । तिनीहरू कनानको भूमिमा जानलाई हिँडे र कनानको भूमिमा आइपुगे ।
And Abram takes his wife Sarai, and his brother’s son Lot, and all their substance that they have gained, and the persons that they have obtained in Haran; and they go out to go toward the land of Canaan; and they come to the land of Canaan.
6 अब्राम त्यो भूमि हुँदै शकेममा भएको मोरेको फलाँटको रुखसम्म गए । त्यस बेला त्यो भूमिमा कनानीहरू बस्थे ।
And Abram passes over into the land, to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh; and the Canaanite [is] then in the land.
7 परमप्रभु अब्रामकहाँ देखा पर्नुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “यो भूमि म तेरा सन्तानहरूलाई दिनेछु ।” यसैले अब्रामले तिनीकहाँ देखा पर्नुहुने परमप्रभुको निम्ति एउटा वेदी बनाए ।
And YHWH appears to Abram and says, “To your seed I give this land”; and there he builds an altar to YHWH, who has appeared to him.
8 त्यहाँबाट तिनी बेथेलको पूर्वतिरको देशतिर गए, जहाँ तिनले बेथेललाई पश्चिमतिर र ऐलाई पूर्वतिर पारेर तिनको पाल टाँगे । त्यहाँ तिनले एउटा वेदी बनाए र परमप्रभुको नाउँको पुकारा गरे ।
And he removes from there toward a mountain at the east of Beth-El, and stretches out the tent (Beth-El at the west, and Hai at the east), and he builds an altar to YHWH there, and preaches in the Name of YHWH.
9 अनि अब्राम यात्रा गर्दै नेगेवतिर गए ।
And Abram journeys, going on and journeying toward the south.
10 त्यो भूमिमा अनिकाल लागेको थियो, यसैले अब्राम बस्नलाई मिश्रतिर झरे (गए), किनकि त्यो भूमिमा निकै अनिकाल लागेको थियो ।
And there is a famine in the land, and Abram goes down toward Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine [is] grievous in the land;
11 तिनी मिश्र प्रवेश गर्न लाग्दा, तिनले आफ्नी पत्नी साराईलाई भने, “हेर, तिमी कति सुन्दरी स्त्री छौ भनी म जान्दछु ।
and it comes to pass as he has drawn near to enter Egypt, that he says to his wife Sarai, “Now behold, I have known that you [are] a woman of beautiful appearance;
12 मिश्रीहरूले तिमीलाई देख्दा 'यो यसकी पत्नी हो' भन्ने छन् र तिनीहरूले मलाई मार्ने छन्, तर तिनीहरूले तिमीलाईचाहिँ जीवितै राख्नेछन् ।
and it has come to pass that the Egyptians see you, and they have said, This [is] his wife; and they have slain me, and you they keep alive:
13 यसैले तिमी मेरी बहिनी हौ भनी तिमीले भन, ताकि तिम्रो खातिर मेरो भलो होस् र तिम्रो खातिर मेरो जीवन बाँचोस् ।
please say you [are] my sister, so that it is well with me because of you, and my soul has lived for your sake.”
14 मिश्र प्रवेश गर्न लग्दा साराई अति सुन्दरी थिइन् भनी मिश्रीहरूले देखे ।
And it comes to pass, at the entering of Abram into Egypt, that the Egyptians see the woman that she [is] exceedingly beautiful;
15 फारोका अधिकारीहरूले तिनलाई देखे र फारोको सामु तिनको प्रशंसा गरे र ती स्त्रीलाई फारोको घरानामा लगियो ।
and princes of Pharaoh see her, and praise her to Pharaoh, and the woman is taken [to] Pharaoh’s house;
16 फारोले तिनको खातिर अब्रामलाई राम्रो व्यवहार गरे र तिनलाई गोरु, गधाहरू, नोकरीहरू, गधैनीहरू र ऊँटहरू दिए ।
and to Abram he has done good because of her, and he has sheep and oxen, and male donkeys, and menservants, and handmaids, and female donkeys, and camels.
17 अनि परमप्रभुले अब्रामकी पत्नी साराईको कारण फारो र तिनको परिवारमाथि ठुलो विपत्ति ल्याउनुभयो ।
And YHWH plagues Pharaoh and his house—great plagues—for the matter of Sarai, Abram’s wife.
18 फारोले अब्रामलाई बोलाए र भने, “तिमीले मलाई यो के गरेको? तिनी तिम्रो पत्नी थिइन् भनी मलाई किन बताएनौ?
And Pharaoh calls for Abram and says, “What [is] this you have done to me? Why have you not declared to me that she [is] your wife?
19 'तिनी मेरी बहिनी हुन्' भनी तिमीले किन मलाई भन्यौ? त्यसैले मैले तिनलाई मेरी पत्नी बनाउन मैले लगेँ । यसकारण, तिम्रो पत्नी यहीँ छिन् । तिनलाई लेऊ र आफ्नो बाटो लाग ।
Why have you said, She [is] my sister, and I take her to myself for a wife? And now, behold, your wife, take and go.”
20 अनि फारोले तिनको बारेमा आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई आदेश दिए र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई तिनकी पत्नी र तिनीसँग भएका सबै थोकसहित पठाए ।
And Pharaoh charges men concerning him, and they send him away, and his wife, and all that he has.
